McCammon Junction Is where the Ogden Subdivision ends and the trains join the
Pocatello Subdivision. In the last photo, the line that goes off to the right is the Ogden
Subdivision.

now used as a the McCammon City Hall.

This shed can be seen in the south end of town, and is built using two Union Pacific boxcars
as the outer walls. This road crossing is at the junction point of the Ogden and Pocatello
Subdivisions.
